Abstract (en)

The projector (1) comprises a case, a light source (2), colour separating means (4) for producing three colour beams, three light valves (5R, 5G, 5B), a uniform illumination optical means (3) between said light source (2) and said colour separating means (4) for producing a plurality of rectangular beams, light guide means (9) located on an optical path of one colour beam (G) having the longest optical path, colour synthesising means (6), and a projection lens (7). Three condenser lenses (101, 102, 103) almost collimate beams output from the colour separating means. The rectangular beams are superimposed to said light valves through the condenser lenses. The direction of a projection beam from said projection lens (7) is parallel and reverse to the direction of the light beam (W) from said light source. A light source cooling means and a vent are located on the side of from which the projection beam is output.
